Amtrak And CSX Trains Split Parade Three Times

This is a video I made of the 2023 Strawberry Parade in Plant City Florida of 3 trains that split the parade into 3/3rds. First Amtrak then a CSX local that stops and blocks the parade then a huge CSX manifest just before the end of the parade can make it across the tracks.

That was epic!! 3 times for one parade has to be a record. Next year I want to film it lol

[@Minecraftganer101]

Even though of a trains going over its own tracks 🤣 in the gates are triggered

[@slimonion1975]

i wouldn't have minded..i would have enjoyed watching the trains go by

[@RailwayFan326]

Worst place for a parade. Best place for railfanners.

[@CSXFan5496]

Nice video!!

[@El_Transportacoches_33]

What surprised me the most was the fact that there was a tourist road train in the middle of the parade... Before the railway star came: the Amtrak Genesis.

I’m in the area of Lakeland currently, am visiting the Plant City diamond daily. Tomorrow I’ll be checking out the Florida Railroad Museum; you got any recommendations?

[@youraveragejoe2]

What'd you go with?

[@mikeashely8198]

I love it when a train stops on the Crossing and only has a half a car or so before it's completely over it and sits there

[@MPVI_Melon]

Nice Catch!

[@Robloxbasicsonly]

COOL

[@mikeashely8198]

What was their first the railroad and then the City built up around it. Or did the city encroached onto the tracks

[@uprailfan73]

Big parade nice

[@CMBC7Railfan]

Nice Video.

He said I wish the orange was here

[@lovecntrains2732]

What train Engine. Is the CSX? Is it a gp 50?

[@Morristownrailfanningemergency]

5:38 if your talking about this one, that is a GP40-3

[@mikeashely8198]

You think the city would have put the parade parallel to the tracks City officials

[@MPVI_Melon]

Safetran railroad crossings, with a General Signal E-bell.

[@wildtraingamer3146]

One signal has a us&s mechanical bell!

[@FightingMachineTripod]

id rather watch a train then a perade

[@wildtraingamer3146]

True

[@areguapiri]

Are you saying first a train, next a parade? Or are you saying you prefer watching a train more?
..."then" or "than"...

[@Ethanfilms8273]

@@areguapiriIt doesn't really matter much. I can tell he means that he would rather watch a train than a parade.

[@ianbrown5928]

Your right that is what they get for crossing the tracks in a perade

[@areguapiri]

You're

[@ianbrown5928]

I would love to see amtrack train splitting the perade in half and i would love to see freight train split the perade in half too and it's a csx freight train

[@slasherhawk24]

Would have been hilarious if a 4th train came through and somehow split the last part of the parade up Lmfao.
